Why Trump tax cut may not deliver the boost White House says

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Donald Trump's team boasted Wednesday that its tax-cut plan would lighten Americans' financial burdens, ignite economic growth and vastly simplify tax filing.

Yet the proposal so far remains short of vital details, including how it would be paid for. And based on the few specifics spelled out so far, most experts suggest that it would add little to growth while swelling the budget deficit and potentially handing large windfalls to wealthier taxpayers.

Trump's plan would replace the current seven income tax brackets with three, and the top bracket would drop from 39.6 percent to 35 percent. It would also slash the corporate rate from 35 percent all the way to 15 percent, a boon to most companies even though many don't pay the full tax now.

This Joke of a giveaway to the rich is no plan at all!

It is a one page double spaced and heavily indented joke from a small mind.

Any really thought out serious plan would run dozens, if not hundreds of pages.

It hardly constitutes legislation it is the shallow thinking of a man supremely unfit for the Presidency.

Trump's ideas on any given topic are those of the last person he discussed that topic with. Looks like he discussed tax reform with someone who believes in but doesn't understand the discredited theory of trickle-down economics.
